Sec. 14. All officers and home office employees of every corporation having control of or access to moneys or securities of such corporation in the regular discharge of their duties, shall, before entering upon the performance of their duties, execute their individual bonds with adequate surety payable to the corporation to indemnify the corporation for any pecuniary loss it shall sustain of money or other personal property by any act or acts of fraud, dishonesty, forgery, theft, embezzlement, wrongful abstraction, or willful misapplication. The amount and form of such bonds and the sufficiency of the sureties thereon shall be approved by the board of directors of the corporation and by the department and shall be filed with the department within such time as it may prescribe. In lieu of individual bonds, a blanket bond covering all such officers and employees may be used, subject to the same approval as individual bonds. No officer or director of the corporation shall sign the bond of any other person as surety thereon required by this article. If any bonds required by this section are signed by individuals as sureties, the bonds must contain separate affidavits as to the net worth of each surety.
